The Minnesota Vikings travel to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football! Sam Bradford and the Vikings suffered their first loss of the 2016 season last week, and now they’ll be without running back Jerick McKinnon, who has been ruled out for their division clash against the Bears. Does that mean Ronnie Hillman could see an increased role in the Viking’s offense? We’ll find out as Minnesota takes on the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football!

WHAT TIME DOES THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS VS. CHICAGO BEARS GAME START?

The Vikings and Bears game is scheduled for an 8:30 P.M. Eastern kickoff.

HOW DO I LIVE STREAM THE CHICAGO BEARS VS. MINNESOTA VIKINGS GAME?

The Vikings/Bears game will air on ESPN, which means it is also being livestreamed on the Worldwide Leader’s excellent WatchESPN app, as well as Sling TV. Unfortunately, you’ll need to authenticate with a cable provider if you want to watch the game on Watch ESPN, so get your (or your friend’s/parent’s!) login credentials ready.

All you cordcutters out there can watch tonight’s game via Sling TV, whose Orange package carries both ESPN and ESPN2 (more on Sling below).

And there’s also PlayStation Vue. Subscribers to their ‘Access’ basic cable streaming service have access to ESPN.

HOW CAN I GET THE WATCH ESPN APP?

If you consider yourself a sports fan and you haven’t already downloaded the free Watch ESPN app for your iOS, Android or Windows Mobile device, you’re doing it wrong. Rectify that situation immediately! You can also tune-in via Watch ESPN’s Roku channel, using your Amazon Fire TV or Chromecast device, or by visiting WatchESPN.com on your desktop or laptop computer. (NOTE: You’re going to need to authenticate with your cable provider, so make sure you have your login and password for your cable system handy.)

WHAT ABOUT NFL GAME PASS?

NFL Game Pass shows games that have already concluded. If you’re fine with on demand NON-live games, sign up for $99/year.

WHAT ABOUT TWITTER? I HEARD THEY WERE STREAMING THE NFL THIS YEAR.

Twitter is indeed streaming a number of games, but only Thursday night games, and not all of them.

HOW CAN I GET SLING TV?

This is a terrific time to check out Sling TV. The service’s Orange package, which includes access to ESPN, ESPN 2, Comedy Central, and TNT, normally costs $20 a month, but the company is currently offering subscribers a free one-week trial of the service. Then, from there, you can either download the Sling desktop app (if you’re watching on a desktop or laptop computer), or download the Sling app for iOS/Apple devices, Android, Roku, Microsoft, Nexus player, ZTE or XBox One.
